As I stepped back onto the familiar grounds of Misamis University, a wave of nostalgia washed over me. Walking through the campus brought back vivid memories of my college days—the laughter shared, the lessons learned, and the friendships that have shaped my identity. The Maria Mercado Building stood out as a silent witness to those formative years of hard work and aspirations. And there, in the quadrangle—a timeless gathering spot where students still converse, share stories, and laugh between classes—I was reminded that some things remain constant. The spirit of MU lives on in every corner.
Witnessing the Battle of the Bands during the 96th Foundation Anniversary celebration filled me with pride and gratitude. The energy of the students, the dedication of the organizers, and the harmonious blend of performances showcased the vibrant and resilient nature of the MU community. It wasn’t just a display of talent; it was a powerful reflection of unity, creativity, and the enduring legacy of Dr. Hilarion T. Feliciano.
It was also heartwarming to see ASEAN exchange student observers from partner schools joining the celebration, immersing themselves in the vibrant culture and hospitality that define MU. Their presence underscored the university’s commitment to bridging local roots with global connections, demonstrating that education and friendship transcend boundaries.
Beyond the music and the memories, one truth emerged: Misamis University’s strong foundation remains steadfast. It continues to inspire generations—to learn, to lead, and to live with purpose. I can confidently say that MU has been, and will always be, an integral part of who I am today.
